well for the full time aburn lsd with 4/10 gears installed.... they want $1,142.62????? does that sound like a good deal?


any other ideas... also what kind of 4/10's should i get.. i drive this truck daily... and want awesome accleration but with good top end.. do you think 4.10's are the way to go... or are 3.73's better for what i want.

I have paid 1500.00 installed before. Check with Nelson Performance of TRT they might be cheaper. If you are close to them.

do it yourself.... all you need is patience and a good memory

yeah but dont you have to measure backlash or something like that?

There is a few more things in addition to the backlash...pinion depth, pinion bearing preload, and carrier bearing preload. Shims are used for correct spacing, but each rear end is slightly different, so you have to use a micrometer or dial indicator to get specific depths. It's a pretty intense install unless you know exactly what to do...

ya see i dont have those kinds of tools to measure that so i guess im gonna have to have it installed. anybody got any hook-ups that could get an auburn lsd?

Where are you located?

Go with the Auburn Pro with Richmond gears.. I have 373' but will be switching to 410's the 373 dont pull hard enough in high gear. When i shift out of second it kinda falls down
